    About this ebook

    In The Tale of Timmy Tiptoes, a squirrel Timmy and his wife Goody are collecting nuts for the winter.

The seventeenth of Beatrix Potter's 22 charmingly illustrated tales of animals in amusing situations, The Tale of Timmy Tiptoes has delighted children and adults alike since its release in 1911.

      Timmy Tiptoes and his wife, Goody Tiptoes, store their nuts in several holes. The other squirrels think that Timmy Tiptoes has stolen their nuts, and they catch him and stick him in one of the holes. Eventually he gets out and stores his nuts with a padlock in the future.
    • 2/5
      Needlessly violent and pointless.
    • 5/5
      This is a quaint little tale about woodland creatures trying to prepare for the winter. Even though other animals may threaten to take their food away from them, Timmy Tiptoes has another plan entirely!
    • 4/5
      This tale always ruffles my feathers. The injustice of it all! Reading it now, as an adult, I think it captures the capriciousness of squirrels (as we view them) very well. The seeming randomness of little woodland creatures. A fun story.
